Oh yeah, the new coach. He got the football program going. The kids love him. I've met him a few times but not her yet. He seems like a good guy and an asset to the school. Definitely not a climbing bum. It would be too awkward for him to climb with those starched shorts coach types love to wear..... Drop me a line if you're ever out this way. Bill Lewis

HAHAHA The longer you stay here the cooler/weirder it can get. Waves can speak a lot about the person. And since there is only about 2300 of us out here, how someone waves on a particular day tells alot; especially if you cross reference that with the latest gossip you picked up at the bar/coffee shop/lumber yard.... Can anybody say "fishbowl"?! Pot growing out here has pretty much dissappeared. There was a big bust on Waldron a few years back. The Feds along with the San Juan County Sheriff's office flew low grid patterns in a helicopter over Lopez for a couple days a month and a half ago. Twice over my place All they found on the whole Island was four plants this woman had in her garden. They came in big black suburbans with guns and yanked the plants . WTF did that cost us in taxpayer dollars? Great having you out Erik! You think there'll be more? There are a couple "projects" I'd like to show you.... Bigwalling, who's your Aunt and Uncle?

Thanks Lowell

All is ok brother michael. It can be very tramatic indeed facing a paradigm shift of this magnitude. Peace be with you

Would that be the peak in Shukstanistan?

The cone of silence

No, but I was out shukin' corn this evening...

What are you Josh, like 20 years old A sad day indeed

Nice shirt Porter That is a right handsome ewe I think it is Eight-Mile Campground tho

Actually, of all the "american" style lagers (cheap rice beer) Coors tastes the best warm...

agreed. IPA should chill

It's funny; people who believe this trust science enough to get on a plane or drive in a car, to engineer their food, or treat them at a hospital, but they think that this existence is only 6,000 years old?! There is a rocky headland on this island where you can see the gouges and grooves the glaciers wore during the last ice age, which ENDED some 13,000 years ago! What about all of the dinosaur bones and evolution. Our close genetic simlarities to other animals?!??? Faith is the mind killer

FW, you did come across that way. And, I can also see the need to address the issue so that we don't get a bunch of people hacking trails everywhere. Mike and Erik's climb is in an area very few will travel to, so the impacts are nil. However, a bunch a young, newbie climbers might look at this as the way to go at it for adventure in close by, easily accessed drainages that have established trails. The time is approaching where the North Cascades are going to get as crowded as the Colorado Rockies or the Sierras of California. The impacts will start to be noticed...

I definitely had some great laughs when he was around. It was always interesting, with an air of tension, when he was lurking around on the board. That said, I was never a recipient of any major broadside from him.

I remember that!

i love that granite

Or could this be about him?

Could this be him?

Anybody got a picture of the cretin?

That impresses me Mike. Where does one go after being banned from Asscentionist? climbingboulder.com?! 8anu

No matter which free keg we get, the other one should be Stout. Thanks A million TG And my man OLY

Sure looks that way!
